The bosses of some of Europe’s biggest banks will ask Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May on Thursday to give them a reason to stay in the City of London after Brexit now that hopes are fading for a generous E.U. trade deal.

May will dine with bank and insurance chiefs who are members of the European Financial Services Round Table and discussions could shed light on what the government wants from Europe for financial services. This group includes banks and insurers from around Europe, such as Deutsche Bank, Societe Generale, Barclays, and Aviva.
